So I bit the bullet

And upgraded my Windows 7 Professional machine to Windows 10. Not as bad as I would have thought it would be.

I’ve pretty much unpinned all the bullshit from the start menu – I don’t have an Xbox that would be compatible, also don’t care about Cortana, or get MS office. Sorry – that ship has sailed. I just have LibreOffice 4.4 on the machine.

Performance wise I note running Netlflix in Google Chrome is much smoother.

It’s running on a Dell E6420 I5 quad core system with 4GB or RAM. I plan to upgrade the RAM thought.

So no more dunning to upgrade to Windows 10. I’m running it now – and allegedly this is supported FOREVER. That’s interesting by itself.

Thank you. Win 10 is a bit smoother than Win 7 and definitely better than Win 8. But here’s the reality – Windows 10 is Actually Windows 9. It’s just they couldn’t give it that designation because it would conflict with Windows 95 and Windows 98. Yes, there are still Windows 95 and Windows 98 machines out there.
